Despite Rick Snyder’s egregious power grabs and plummeting approval ratings, the recall effort does not have the official backing of either the Michigan Democratic Party or local labor unions. As such, it does not have many resources. This means the only way it will work is through the grassroots efforts of volunteers like you.

The Committee to Recall Rick Snyder has already signed up over 1,200 volunteers and identified captains in every county in the state. They can do this, but they need your help.
